IDP-basierte Bedrohungserkennung auf Session Smart-Routern

Hey everyone, today I want to show you how easy it is to deploy an AI-driven full-stack branch managed by the Mist Cloud. That is a whole branch network with access points, switches, and routers, all being managed by a single pane of glass, with artificial intelligence to alert you to any issues and easily find the root cause of those issues. In this demo, I will show you how Juniper Network's AI-driven full-stack branch simplifies all operational stages. Day zero design, day one deployment, and day two troubleshooting and maintenance. And also, I will show you how quickly this can be done.

All right, let's jump into it. Day zero design. When we talk about day zero operations, we are talking about all the planning and design that you can do prior to deploying any of the systems. These are the tasks that should be performed to make sure that the actual deployment day goes as smoothly as possible. The tasks you want to perform here are designing your network and staging your configuration. Using the Mist Cloud, you have one interface you can log into to configure all of the access points, switches, and routers in your whole network. You can use configuration templates with site-specific variables, so you only have to create a limited number of configurations for large deployments. I have seen deployments with 10,000 sites that only have six or so different designs. So, what do they do? They create six templates and apply the appropriate templates to the correct sites as they are onboarding. I have also dealt with deployments that have a couple variations between sites. Say, for example, they use different IP address schemes at each site. This is not a problem either because all we have to do is input a variable or placeholder like this, and then when we create the site, we say, for this variable, put in this value. With this technology, we can easily deploy 1,000 sites in minutes.

Once you have your network designed and you have staged your configuration, it is time to prepare for deployment day. Day one deployment. Day one stands for the first day of use for our new devices. This is the most exciting day in my opinion. You have a shiny new device and you just can't wait to pull it out of the box and use it. Unfortunately, a lot of times, this day can be ruined by the actual deployment and installation. Well, that does not have to be the case with Juniper Networks. With the AI-driven full-stack branch, you can easily deploy your network using QR codes or claim codes. First, if you didn't do it as part of your day zero tasks, create a site in the Mist cloud and assign the appropriate templates to that site. Then, just look at the back of your device for a QR code and scan it with an app or grab the claim code and add it to your inventory for that site. If you have a white box switcher router, then just copy a few lines of configuration to get that device speaking to the Mist cloud. Once your device connects up to the Mist cloud, it will see what site it is deployed to and grab the appropriate configuration. Another huge benefit of the configuration templates is that if you need to make any changes to your configuration, all you have to do is make the change in the template and the change will get pushed down to all of the appropriate devices. You no longer need to log into each individual device. With these powerful tools at your disposal, you can have a full site up in minutes. This is what we call true zero-touch provisioning.

Day two, maintenance and troubleshooting. Once you have your site deployed, then it just comes down to your normal day-to-day operations. This is what we call our day two operations. In the Mist ecosystem, we like to break our telemetry down to SLEs or service level experiences. These SLEs give you insight into the health of your network, devices, links and applications. They alert you to any issues impacting the user experience and provide insights into the root cause. The SLEs are impressive and very powerful, giving you experience insights across the network. But even more powerful is your AI virtual network assistant, Marvis. Marvis Actions proactively alert you to high priority issues impacting your network. This Marvis actions page is a great page to start your day off with, a cup of coffee view, so you can know where you need to spend your attention and solve issues before your customers even know. You can also chat with Marvis to ask questions about your network. Say, for example, you're getting complaints about an application not working. You can ask Marvis if the problem is something on your network, with your ISP or on the application itself. This saves hours of investigating to prove where the problem is and reduces your MTTI or mean time to innocence. Security is also managed by Mist and Marvis. Using the IDP and enhanced web filtering features in your SessionSmart routers, you leverage the Juniper IDP signature database, providing state-of-the-art protection against the most up-to-date vulnerabilities. The database contains definitions of attack objects and application signatures defined in the form of an IDP policy rule set that is updated regularly.By automatically downloading the latest definitions and application signatures, the SSR is able to provide cutting-edge security solutions for your network. When discovered, you can either have your router alert you to the vulnerability or block the traffic, giving you the network protection that you need without the need to purchase additional hardware.

Lastly, with all of this data and all of these cool tools, how can you share this information with interested parties and extend Mist into your business intelligence? This can be done with Premium Analytics. Premium Analytics is another tool that you can use to share with any decision maker, help them get the relevant information they need. Whether it's a CIO looking at further network investment, a branch manager looking at user experience, or a facilities management executive looking at real estate optimization and occupancy management. Premium Analytics provides long-term insights into your network with intuitive graphs and charts. So that was a very brief dive into what the Juniper Network AI-driven full-stack SD branch has to offer. To summarize, the AI-driven full-stack SD branch simplifies every stage of operations, design, deployment, maintenance, and troubleshooting, allowing for the best user experience for your network architects, engineers, operations folks, and end users. There is a lot more that you can do with the Mist Cloud and Mist AI than we have time to show you here. If you'd like to try this out for yourself, sign up for a demo or POC. Thank you for watching.
